From a press release:
“Whitlow’s, the area’s legendary neighborhood bar and restaurant has relocated to a new neighborhood. Whitlow’s DC’s new home is 2014 9th Street NW at U Street, in the Shaw community, across from the 930 Club. It opens tonight, Tuesday August 23, at 5 pm.

Longtime Clarendon, VA mainstay, Whitlow’s has come full circle from when the original restaurant and bar was founded in 1946 at 11th & E Streets NW. It moved to Clarendon 26 years ago as Whitlow’s on Wilson before closing in 2021.
Co-owner Jon Williams describes the new 3,600 square-foot space as a “neighborhood gathering space, it’s warm and welcoming, doesn’t feel pretentious”. Whitlow’s wood-paneled front room has booth and community table seating, a live DJ space and a copper-topped bar with vintage lighting fixtures. A second bar in the adjoining room has a two-story ceiling and large windows overlooking an enclosed landscaped patio. “Our patio feels like you are sitting in a friend’s back yard”, says Williams.
Known for its paraphernalia and sports memorabilia and its live music, longtime fans will be happy to know that the new iteration is filled with familiar vintage neon signage, art and whimsical trinkets from the older locations. That includes, according to Williams, the Elvis lamp from the Arlington bar.
Initially, a menu from next door neighbor, Andy’s Pizza, will be offered. A full menu of shareable appetizers, burgers, sandwiches and salads will roll out in the fall.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
